Download Files

• Ways to find and download a file:
  • FOLDERS page. Select a folder containing the file and click download.
  • Search Results. Search for the file.
  • New file notification. Click (or copy into your browser) the link sent in the email. This link takes you directly to the file referenced in the email. (After you sign on, if necessary.)
  • If you do not know where the file is, search for it in the Find File/Folder box in the left navigation area. Enter either the NAME of the file (e.g., readme.txt) or the FILEID (e.g., 1234567) and click the magnifying glass to search.

Note: See Configure the Upload/Download Wizard to determine which wizard is enabled on your system (if any), and how to install, enable, or disable the wizard.

• Using download wizards:

If the MOVEit Upload/Download Wizard is not installed, your browser downloads the selected file per usual browser conventions.

If the MOVEit Upload/Download Wizard is enabled, the steps you take to download the file depend on the type of wizard enabled:

JavaScript Wizard

The JavaScript Wizard does not check download integrity automatically. When you download a file, a Downloads window opens. After the file finishes downloading, optionally click Check. Locate and select the downloaded file. A green checkmark indicates that the integrity check succeeded. A red X indicates a failed integrity check.

You can also perform integrity checks on Recent Downloads from your Home page, if enabled.
